Almost a year? Seriously?

I guess that just goes to show how exciting my life has been.... Things since January have gone ape shit though. I quit my job at the bowling alley. It was a quit or kill situation. While killing Richard would have been a fun and enjoyable choice, I have a kid and wife to think about. It worked out for the best anyway. Does anyone really want to work in a building that has asbestos in it? I figure after a year and a half at Cloverleaf Lanes here in Kingston, I put myself at enough risk for cancer. Next on the fun list is our rent is going up. It's just too much now so we're moving. Buh-bye to Kingston!! Our new place is going to be about $140.00 cheaper, has 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and a dishwasher! Down side is that I have to do the move by myself... Most recently though is the mother in law.... Her husband was abusing her and she finally decided to leave him when he threatened to kill her and himself if she came here for Mother's day. He spent the weekend in the psych ward and we moved her and some of her stuff out while he was on lockdown. Sounds simple right? WRONG!!!! It looks like the majority of his family is just as nuts as he is. His sister owns the building they lived in and she saw us moving her. She went right off the deep end. Started screaming that we were screwing her over for rent. To hell with the fact that mom felt her life was in danger. I tried to calm her down but she just kept freaking out. She said she called her son, and that wasn't a good thing. So I called the cops. Her son, his girlfriend(not sure it was a real woman) and his buddy showed up. Immediately got in my face and started screaming. Telling me about how they all know everyone in the police force, saying they were going to tell the cops I threatened them all with a knife..... Talk a bout a cluster fuck. Now mom is here with us until we can get her into a women's shelter. She's feeling better but is looking forward to getting out on her own. Now I think I need something to eat....
